Some music dvds at Dollar Tree
 
My Dollar Tree has some music dvds from a company called Eagle Eye Media. Very few titles but many copies.

Jewel - Live at Humphrey's by the Bay (2003)
Johnny Cash - A Concert Behind Prison Walls w/CD
Joe Cocker: Respect Yourself - Live (2005)
George Thorogood and the Destroyers 30th Anniversary Tour Live (2005) w/CD
Charlie Daniels Band - Volunteer Jam
Madonna - Wild Angel

$1.00 is an even better price than the $3.00 I've heard the Jewel DVD has shown up for at Sav-a-Lot. And I bought the Cash set for $8.00 at FYE last fall. It's not a definitive Cash title, as he only performs a couple of songs to bookend the special, but the nice thing is that it comes with the CD, too.

I'd buy these for a buck for sure. Already have the Charlie Daniels Band & Jewel one.

The Jewel DVD was $1 at Sav A Lot also. I bought it plus all these there:
The Pretenders (Loose In L.A.)
Puddle of Mudd (Striking That Familiar Chord)
Sinead O'Connor (Goodnight, Thank You...)
Atomic Kitten (Right Here Right Now)
Ray Charles (Live In Concert With The Edmonton Symphony)
Fatboy Slim (Live on Brighton Beach - Big Beach Boutique, Vol. 2)
Wyclef Jean (All Star Jam At Carnegie Hall)

These haven't shown up here in CA yet- once they do I'm buying 'em all! That Ray Charles one was one of the first concerts produced for Laserdisc in 1981.

I've seen a few of these Eagle Rock titles at my local grocery store (Price Chopper), but they were $3.99:

Marianne Faithfull Live In Hollywood (2005) w/CD
Blind Boys Of Alabama - Go Tell It On The Mountain: Live In New York
Boomtown Rats Live At Hammersmith Odeon 1978
Ray Charles Live - In Concert with the Edmonton Symphony
Supershow (Buddy Guy - Eric Clapton - Roland Kirk - Stephen Stills & others from 1969)

Only 1 of each found

Checked my local Dollar Tree yesterday. The only dvd's they had were really cheesy public domain $ store dvd's either in cardboard sleeves or the ultra thin plastic sleeves. I have seen the Eagle titles at Fye for the last few months for anywhere From $3-$10 depending on that week's sale.

Finally got to a Dollar Tree tonight. Saw none of the titles listed above, but was very happy to find:

Pixies: Acoustic - Live In Newport
Norman Granz Presents IMPROVISATION (2 DVD set with Charlie Parker, Duke Ellington, Dizzy Gillespie, Ella Fitzgerald, Lester Young, Oscar Peterson, Count Basie & more - plus the classic "Jammin' The Blues" short)

also saw:
The Chieftains: Live Over Ireland - Water From The Well
Carmen McRae/Manhattan Transfer - Double Time Jazz Collection, Vol. 1

There was only 1 other title, but I can't remember what it was.

Has anyone seen any of these titles at Dollar Trees in Washington state? before I start driving to multiple stores, I'd like to know that there's at least a chance of finding them!

Thanks for the info. I've got to have that Pixies disc!

Are the UPCs slashed? They were that way at FYE.

Re: Some music dvds at Dollar Tree
 
I finally got around to watching the pretenders dvd and what a great concert dvd it is, was filmed at a small theatre in los angeles, widescreen format, and the performance - amazing. more than 2 solid hours with all the big hits and lesser known fan favorites. I watched the george thorogood dvd as well, and all of the things I just said about the pretenders dvd, same for the thorogood dvd. as much as I love bo diddley's original version of "who do you love", it does not have the drive or power of thorogood's cover version. you gotta love the part of the show where george is looking down at the audience, and sees a guy in the front row wearing a ramones t-shirt and proceeds to throw him down a george thorogood shirt.

I went to all 4 stores in Tallahassee, FL yesterday and found nothing at the first three I visited. I found a few of these at my last store which is at the outparcel at the Tallahssee Mall. I picked up the following titles:

Volunteer Jam - The Charlie Daniels Band
Madonna - Wild Angel
Wyclef Jean - All-Star Jam At Carnegie Hall
Johnny Cash - A Concert Behind Prison Walls
The Diary Of Alicia Keys
Deep Purple - The Royal Albert Hall
Jefferson Airplane - Fly Jefferson Airplane

There were a few left at that store. I'm hoping my nearest store here in Thomasville, GA will get a few more in stock. Excellent find, thanks OP! BTW I also checked at the Save-A-Lot store in Tallahssee, but their music DVDs had all already been sold.

Re: Some music dvds at Dollar Tree
 
I think I'd buy any of these titles for a dollar. I've got to get to a DollarTree this weekend.

edit: dollar tree#1 had only the usual public domain movies. I'll try DollarTree#2 Saturday.

lee_hero 02-27-09 05:51 PM

Re: Some music dvds at Dollar Tree
 
Anyone know if Dollar Tree stores are still getting these in?

Went by the local one and they had about 20 copies of Madonna Wild Angel and about a million of those public domain 2 for $1 dvd's.

Re: Some music dvds at Dollar Tree
 
I went to a 2nd Dollar Tree today. Just the same public domain crap in slim cases, priced at 50 cents. I asked about the Eagle dvd's, & the clerk said she believed they had never had them.

If anyone could pick up a jefferson Airplane for $1.00, I'd appreciate a trade!

Quatermass 02-28-09 04:34 PM

Re: Some music dvds at Dollar Tree
 
Well damn - Dollar Tree #2 near me yielded nothing either. They did have all their TV dvds on sale 2 for a dollar, but they are the usual public domain TV shows from the fifties.

Did You find this Pretenders DVD at a Dollar Tree? That's one I'd be very interested in.

I found some at the Clifton NJ store. They only had a few titles, but several of each. I grabbed the DEEP PURPLE Concerto For Group & Orchestra (1969). They also had a Ginger Baker title and 2 or 3 others I can't remember.

Re: Some music dvds at Dollar Tree
 
Went to 2 more Dollar Trees today & found:

Canned Heat Live At Montreux 1973
Marianne Faithfull - Dreaming My Dreams

I went to 2 stores today. One had nothing, the other had may a dozen different titles. I bought Jewel, which did indeed have a UPC scratch... But for a buck I can't complain...
